Have you heard of a prayer shawl? My Wish Cowl pattern uses a similar concept!

Along with the pattern PDF, you’ll find a second PDF template to help you assign a color to each of the three sections: Grounding, Centering & Wish.

For example, my sample was made using Brown for Grounding, White for Centering and Aquamarine for my Wish. I supply tips on how to relate meanings with colors, too!

The Wish Cowl becomes a physical embodiment of your wish, and it makes choosing colors fun and meaningful! What wish will you cast on?
